Verse 1:
BbCF
Let there be light where there was darkness,
BbCDm
Let there be love where there was hate,
ADm
Even in the terrors of the night,
BbCF
Sooner or later, comes the day.
Verse 2:
BbCF
Let there be joy where there was sorrow,
BbCDm
Let there be hope where there was none,
ADm
And even as your life-blood flowed away,
BbCF
Neda, your heart is living on.
Chorus:
FBbF
People of the world stand up for freedom,
DmBbC
Voices call from a distant shore,
DmCBbF
For the winds of change are blowing stronger,
DmC
And Evil men will fall,
DmCFFb
For freedom will not wait anymore.
Verse 3:
BbCF
Let there be Spring where there was Winter,
BbCDm
Let there be green where there was grey,
ADm
Even as the Lion seems to sleep,
BbCF
Sooner or later, he will wake.
Chorus:
FBbF
People of the world stand up for freedom,

For freedom will not wait here anymore.

For freedom will not wait here anymore.
